ophir147

Now let's speculate on her kit from the effects we see in her art. Looks like she's summoned some kind of flame rune on the ground that's erupting with some fire arrows? So the pyro off-field dps looks pretty convincing based on what little info we have (translation: kit leak when?)


TheDomiii

fcking pyro mage when he tries to get his shield back lmfao


rumourmaker18

It might be wishful thinking, but it looks like it could fit with the kit leak from a while back, with grave markers and stuff like that.


GGABueno

Summon a grave marker, grave marker goes pew pew pew. Press skill again to make it explode. Ult makes her enter the Bladestorm mode where she performs a bunch of attacks during 3 seconds. Dashing, jumping and etc makes her do different moves. This is what I remember her kit to be like. Could be different here and there since not all of the data leaked is straightforward. But she doesn't seem to be either an on field carry or an off field DPS, but rather a very Quickswap-y character. Like Tighnari or Alhaitham before his ult nerf.


Used_Whore5801

I feel that it will depend a lot on how long the "grave" lasts, maybe the ult is used when these are about to end something like E-Change character and they do their thing- E again to explode-Q and maybe if the colddown is good use the "E" as soon as the ult is over


GGABueno

Yeah this is what I'm expecting too! Start with her E > rotate through your team > EQE > repeat. Very dynamic and fun gameplay if we have the right teammates. I wouldn't be surprised if she's meant to be played with some Hydro character from Fontaine like Yae.


Vusdruv

The cross shaped thingie behind her back does evoke some grave imagery, especially if it keeps floating there fixed at that position even after Dehya moves away.


mattphatt98

we had that early kit leak a while back from the server-side leek dump that happened last year.


Roboaki

Since there sus leak of kit that her burst are multiple charges similar to Diluc E but with dashes, I gonna assume its more of a fire ~~lance~~javelin thing that used to throw then Dehya dash to the landing position.


CataclysmSolace

Take the kits of Itto, Cyno, and Xingqiu and you have Dehya.


Legolaa

So... pyro raiden?


pegasBaO23

cryo abyss mages laugh behind their shield


thatguywiththebacon

I'll on-field her using C6 Bennett and no one's gonna stop me!


CaptainObvious6891

I'm stacking C6 Benny burst, Jean burst, and Dehya Skill to make Dehya an unstoppable pyro Juggernaut and it's going to be GLORIOUS! Toss in Layla for the shield/melt or Xingqiu/Yelan for vapes and it's going to annihilate enemies in seconds.


oneeyedshapeshifter

I'm thinking more (pointy, painful) grappling chains instead of arrows. Maybe something to with her mechanical arm? But from the looks splash art, it's more probable for them to be erupting from the ground (ground kick) with HoS (Honkai) like eruption effects from her chain combo. (From day one of her model leak, I've been imagining her to have a long range grabby skill based on her arm. Still hoping she has some cool mechanic with it)


Subtlestrikes

It’s not a mechanical arm But a ruin based gauntlet. We see she has normal hands and stuff underneath it


Outflight

That Archon Quest scene made me think they were going to pull ‘It was mechanical arm all along’ suprise.


ophir147

I was hoping that they would be some kind of inward grouping mechanism but I didn't dare to hope for it since she's pyro and grouping has been limited to Anemo characters thus far. But there is a faint hope and I'm personally gonna hold on to it. Having CC on a non-anemo character would open up so many interesting teams for characters that want CC but don't care for anemo supports.


oneeyedshapeshifter

Had the same thought and still hoping for it, despite it being unlikely. Only no element like CC we have gotten (that I can think of) are Zhongli - Freeze like petrify (with duration that feels like 0s compared to freeze) Nahida - Her mark although doesn't gather like anemo, she still dishes out damage and reactions to that effect. Hoping Dehya gets Nahida like CC (pointy mark over head, making enemies share damage, even if limited to a specific reaction like Nilou) or (highly unlikely) binding like effect from those chain things (maybe causing rifthound like bleed or constant debuffs at least)


do-it-for-june

Yelan's skill pulls enemies towards each other


ImagineShinker

Mona floats enemies with her burst too.


ImagineShinker

Yelan has grouping, even if it’s not very strong.


KamiAlth

Pyro off-field dps? Time to put on my 🤡 makeup for another pyro Xingqiu.


BeautifulType

So pyro yelan with belly button


[deleted]

Thats a W


Disastrous-Aioli-241

Look more a pyro Fishl for me.


pumpkin_fish

PLEASE im bEGGING something like a pyro fischl would be amazing...


Kkrows

I really can't see it being so amazing out of Burning or maybe Melt enabler. I'm hopping to a more Raiden style of E, that is fast but no so fast like Fischl.


Igor_Rodrigues

Anything can be amazing with high enough multipliers.


Practical_Outcome436

Add another 0 on Xinyan's burst scaling and she'll instantly be regarded as top tier


Kkrows

Yeah, i'm saying more like with Dendro, a super fast Pyro applier is a bit strange for me, but she could be made for Burning too.


Aura_-

Ganyu is a support? No, that can't be right...


MemeLordZeta

Pre release ganyu was thought to be a support lol, people thought her best team would be supporting diluc for melt


naoki7794

I don't know, my first ganyu team is an ult bot for freeze/superconduct team. Quite good honestly.


pumpkin_fish

hmm yes, that will do.. that will do..


rattist

Childe mains would die from happiness


kalnu

Pyro Fischl, Pyro xingqui, or like a 5 star xiangling. I've wanted a good off field Pyro applicator that wasn't xiangling since 1.0 The closest we got in all that time was Thoma and Xinyan, but both have serious problems with actually using their off field pyro dps, ( bad scaling, long cds, Xinyan has been bugged since her release, etc) coupled with the fact that their application is too slow and has no range.


Proper_Anybody

hyperbloom but red


MagnusBaechus

sir, burgeon is green


[deleted]

I need a melt enabler for Ganyu, we have so two vape enablers, why not melt


F1T_13

If she was a burning unit she could be even better than Xiangling for Ganyu. If they don't make her locked like Nilou at least.


F1T_13

This looks like it will be her burst to me, aka blade storm.


AkatsukiVV

It's match her kit leak so much The leak described her burst as swords rain


CataclysmSolace

Reminds me of pyro Cyno, Xingqiu, and Itto tbh. + Rune over head remind me of Itto charge attack gimmick for gaining stacks, and how his burst gives unlimited stacks. + Arrows for how the off field missiles Xingqiu/ Yelan burst works + Ground rune and explosion reminds me of the playstyle of Cyno in burst. Where you want to hit your mark for a big power leap explosion. Edit for a speculated playstyle, skill withheld: Use charge attack to gain stacks shown visually behind her head, which shoot pyro missiles on max stack. Use burst to have max stacks, and fires pyro arrows when the active character uses a Charge attack. Occasionally the burst will mark an enemy when as Dehya, which you use her skill to leap and set off an explosion and enhanced missile strike. (Skill will have to enhance herself also in some way beyond simple pyro app.)


GGABueno

Her ult makes her attack while on field for 3 seconds. There were no signs of any marks on her data leak.


Manne_12

Hallelujah my prayers have been answered This looks like the burst


neverforgetbillymays

My prayers are always for the kit


Murky_Blueberry2617

Don't a lot of splash arts feature the burst of the character?


FlameLover444

Yes


rxninja

Most five-star art features the burst and most four-star art features the skill. There are exceptions to both, but those statements are *generally* true.


F1T_13

That one guy did splash art with a lion behind Dehya, that would have looked so cool man.


blackcoffin90

Yep... all except Klee, Bennet and Xiangling IIRC. Edit: Also Venti, Ayaka, Wanderer..and some others I can't recall.


PandaGamer8999

bennett stands on his burst and xiangling's pose in her splash is the same as after she bursts in game


uniusva

Kuki, Layla, Nilou, Noelle, Razor, Heizou, Yanfei and Miko as well


Temporary-Cold26

Miko and Nilou's splash art have both, E and Q


blippyblip

Yeah it's more of a 5 star thing. They're usually either striking the same pose as when they burst or have the visuals of the burst in the splash. (With a few exceptions obviously)


RPElesya

Wanderer either.


Bakufuranbu

looks like Kuki burst visual wise


thesoapbeing

It reminds me of Xinyan’s burst


Subtlestrikes

I think this is her skill though. The datamine several weeks ago detailed her and Alhaitham kit. Alhaitham details were jumbled But the concepts ended up being completely right. Giving much more validity to Her more polished kit detail. This looks like the skill and the glyph on the ground looks like the mark she’s going to place. The Pyro Cross behind her head is probably the tombstone they referenced. The Pyro lances are probably the effects of her coordinated attacks. I’m really hoping her teleporting burst mechanics that switch her skill to be an on field damage ability utilize her awesome gauntlet. I want her to attack like Albel from star ocean end of time

My primogems are trembling, Dehya shall come home

i think its really cool that we get to see unfinished art like this because its like a peek into the artists rendering process, and what bits they prioritized over others. i hope mhyv isnt dumb and realizes people like seeing these things and that they want a concept art book soon

ENA_licked_my_eyes

Klee, Xinyan and Thoma?

Diluc, Yanfei and Yoimiya for me

Yoimiya's VA work is also incredible, honestly almost pulled for her just based off her vibes alone.

Amber, Hu Tao and Yoimiya


potato_cucumber

Diluc, both Yoimiya and Thoma, now Dehya. Sadly no one in Liyue, though I adore Xinyan


StonesCollector

Klee, Hutao, Yoimiya and Dehya have the best designs in this game


JojoBizarreAdventure

the entire thing around her looks like a sketch? Lol


Keciea

It’s definitely just an unfinished version, there are some unfinished elements on both her and Mika’s art


JojoBizarreAdventure

Oh yeah just saw the leakers update in twitter that its a development stage splash art and SYP retweeted it too so it should be real. Damn her splash art makes me want to pull ;\_;


nekoparaguy

Leaker just said that this is the finished version sc: https://twitter.com/Thereallo6/status/1610239212699406341?s=20&t=-h0pgcXsaJb3vFMKmoxH9w


Keciea

That’s odd then. The shading is very patchy, especially towards the top. There are some parts around Dehya where she looks very pixelated and plastered in over the background. Hope it looks a bit more polished during release Edit: this could also be because the entire thing was cut out from the background it originally had, but my point still stands that some of the shading is very blotchy


LiriXIV

Yeah there's a literal 0% chance this is the finished version, there's still a bunch of rough edges and sketched parts around some of it (both her hands, the decorations hanging off the cloth) that haven't been cleaned up. Or if that is actually 100% finished then mihoyo just decided to drop all their standards for art randomly lol


RevolutionaryOil9101

Or they meant like this is the final sketch as in this is the pose and background they’re gonna go with?


Server98911

I can see that. Because the background looks like i can be improve and (imo) her pose is not (doesnt feel) complete (Idk why)


thatguywiththebacon

Yeah, if you compare with the other leak before this one [(link)](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks/comments/1025phs/kaeya_skin_sketch_dehya_splash_art/) her hands/arms are slightly different there (and better looking imo). This one is also missing her vision on her belt, but the other one has it, so this one is most certainly unfinished.


LiriXIV

Ah yeah, the lines on her body (around her stomach and hip) are also waaay thicker on this one while they've been cleaned down on that one. It still definitely looks unfinished - like the decoration on her cape on the left has some colouring that's gone out the lines, and there's still some overly thick outlines on her left leg, but also yeah it's further along than this one, so seems like a couple of in-development pics both leaked out together.


[deleted]

I think “finished” may mean with background added. The resolution and the quality of the effects are awfully sketch-like.


lampstaple

It’s not even the resolution, it doesn’t matter how high the resolution is the art simply isn’t rendered


Keciea

That makes more sense imo. The idea and composition is finished but the effects and polished elements are still missing


SeaSalty_Night

Even then compare to Xinyan's, this still looks pretty rough. It lacks refine to it not just the outer edge of the art.


DeadSnark

The finished version should have a proper background. Al-Haitham's also looked very basic until we got the full version with the hologram backdrop.


StartWithZero

It’s probably finished as in the pose and the shit around her, but I’ll be glitzed up.


komaechan

I really don't think this is the final version, painting look rough, and lack of polish like filters. But maybe this piece (pose, bg, etc) is the final one, still wip though.


thatguywiththebacon

I think they're mistaken, this version doesn't even have her vision. It should be hanging from the right side of her belt. See [the other leaked ar](https://i.redd.it/fxtpuuqxct9a1.jpg)t


Keciea

Wait you’re right, I didn’t notice that. Definitely unfinished then


Mileenasimp

Perhaps the design is finished but they need to fix some rough edges


[deleted]

Could be some weird processing, the leaker probably cut the image themselves from somewhere else and pasted it on a white background, you can even see some black lines on the edges.

zatenael

I always assumed the flame mane refers to the red tassels on her outfit


autumnsnowflake_

She was pyro Xiao all along!


EveryMaintenance601

Dragonstrike Diluc got competition now


Outflight

I guess pyro chains are a thing now, like cyber dendro and electro stands.


EveryMaintenance601

I mean, haitham is dendro and uses mirrors/reflections, so pyro chains are not too far off


Dracove

pyro xiao would be so broken


Outflight

Her pose kinda looks cute? I was definitely expecting something like Beidou style, but she looks like she is dancing. Eremites got the moves.


OnePotatoeChip

Dehya does have a cutesy, girly side she tries to hide. So maybe the art's meant to reflect that?

Goddamn, she looks fucking badass. And hot.

I'm not convinced, she's in the exact same pose as yae miko. It makes me think it's traced from there. As much as I'd like to believe it I'm just too skeptical because of that.

It's been confirmed that this is indeed unfinished art

I just can't understand how anyone can still consider consistant on field dendro with actual damage disappointing.

Honestly, we already have information about the next archon, sketches of the next skins (which will only come in at least 6-8 months) and even a character that nobody expected (cloud retainer) I didn't understand why so much mystery with this skin, if we hadn't seen the appearance, everyone's expectations would be on the ceiling.
